Jack's Mannequin – Miss California Lyrics 17 years ago
PEOPLE. this is nto a love song. at all. how can you not see this being about kidnapping, infatuation and murder??
I called Jesus but he didn't check his phone today,
Oh oh, there's my summer girl
I've been wanting her
I hear she's got a boyfriend
Thought I could leave her for a season but it just got cold

[I get out of this that the protaginist thinks God isn't listening after his attempts keep failing and he sees that she has a boyfriend but it only makes him want her more]
Yeah, it's a lonely hour in my cellphone tower,
Broken down transmission.

But I'm gonna take you to my boxcar on the beach
And I'm gonna hang the sun above your bed
And soak your hair in bleach

[okay he's soing to soak her hair in bleach.. think about it. shes not. hes doing it for her. he says hes going to do these thing TO HER. like she doesn't have a say]
You'll be missed Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you you'll turn into a mystery
but you're no mystery to me, Miss California
[ okay you'll be missed. like as in she's going to dissapear for a while.. and kissed by only me. but didnt he say she had a boyfriend? yes.. because hes going to make sure shes never kissed again by anyone else. and shes no mystery to him because hes a stalker and knows everything about him)

I called Jesus but he heard I hurt his little girl, yeah,
with my reckless stare, I've been so unfair
Misplacing my affections
{ okay, he hurt his little girl, hes basically saying jesus is angry, and by misplacing his affections I believe he understands his actions are crazy to some extent)
She had a reason not to take me back into her care
Oh, I'm just a stray dog now, I can't beg or bow
Just give me some direction.

And I'm gonna take you to the mansion where I hide
and I'm gonna paint a diamond on your hand
And you will be my bride
You'll be missed Miss California
You'll be kissed by only me
When they can't find you you'll turn into a mystery
But you're no mystery to me, Miss California
Miss California
I'll be around, I'll be around.
{okay he says hes hiding in the mansion... maybe because hes a kidnapper? ill be around meaning.. like all the time, and hes going to paint a diamond on her hand but says nothign about her say on it]
You'll be missed Miss California.
You'll be kissed by only me.
When they can't find you you'll turn into a mystery
But not to me.

You'll be missed Miss California
We'll be married in the rain
When they can't find you I'm sure I'll be the one they blame
But they can't prove anything
Miss California
Miss California
I'll be around

[when they cant find you- because she got kidnapped. thats why they cant mind you]

okay lmao I know I got a little passionate about this song but it is nto about the happiness of marriage or running off and being in love. there's love sure but it's pretty one sided. I agree with the person that said that it's our generations "every breath you take". over 2000 couples every year use that as their wedding song thoyugh it is very obviously about stalking. the facts are right here people. lol im gonna calm down now

Brand New – Guernica Lyrics 18 years ago
okay, everyone else that reads this is going to be like wtf are you talking about but haha I have this whole storyline thought out to this song.
I think it can honestly be though of as demon possession. Like maybe someone close to the main charector passed away and the main charector owed something to this person, so the person decides to possess them or "use their body as they sleep". maybe the line "a phone call I'd rather not recieve" is about like, the calling from the spirit that takes their place in the protaginists body and their relentlessness and spontanitity as they do it.
I think the title of the song also goes with it- it's an abuse of power for no reason and the spirit takes over the protaginist for no really good reason.
Yeah, this probably made no sense at all

Bright Eyes – Don't Know When but a Day Is Gonna Come Lyrics 18 years ago
oh and I also think that the "men with purple hearts carry silver guns" is about, men of war who fight for their country have come back and are controlling the population.

Bright Eyes – Don't Know When but a Day Is Gonna Come Lyrics 18 years ago
I love this song. it's simply beautiful and gives me chills.
Now everyones going to say I analyzed this way too much but I see this song as sort of abotu a futuristic society. like I think thats what the line " there won't be a moon and there wont be a sun" is about- like, the polution and general state of the world has gotten so bad that you can't see it. and the line "theyll kill a man for what his fathers done" means that maybe this society is extremly strict and you have to follow a lot of rules or they will murder you and your entire family. I think the whole part about beign "sent to a room sat ina chair" is being interrogated by the government about his fathers doings and even his own and the part about beign "not a child, much younger than that" is because the protaginist is beign tortured for information and has regressed into sort of a child like state to try to ignore whats going on around him.
yeah, I probably anazlzed this wayyy to much. but it's a beautiful song.

Arcade Fire – Rebellion (Lies) Lyrics 18 years ago
this is really a great song.
maybe it's just me, overanalyzing as usual but I always took it to be a sort of scifi thing. Like maybe the charectors (in the song) are running from sleep. Like if they sleepthey will turn into something else, so they plan to stay awake and outrun it. to keep on living.
wow that sounded pretty trippy and made no sense.

Patrick Wolf – The Railway House Lyrics 19 years ago
Coule really only one person have commented on this song? its a really really unique song and I love it. I always thought that the lyrics were about two people in love that think their life was going to be perfect "i see us growing old together" but as always, peoples lives dont turn out the way they think it would be. I see that line as maybe a foreshadowing- something will happen to one of them to make them not be able to grow old together..

or maybe i look to much into things

Le Tigre – Dude, Yr So Crazy! Lyrics 19 years ago
I always thought this song was about a really bad trip on drugs. just the background music and the utter randomness of the lyrics that seem to have no reason could be all the random things the person thinks of
